They met during the most confusing and painful time of their youth, and even now that they are adults, they have always been by each other's side. Their friendship was strong and stood the test of time like armor. But underneath that thick armor, Ji Sunwook nurtured a love that was not just friendship. Driven by the desperation to leave no evidence as the sole driving force behind his unrequited love.... more>>

He had thought he could hide it for the rest of his life, until Lee Jihoon asked in the fall of his twenty-nine.

"Don't you think it's even stranger that I've never heard you talk about women you've dated all this while?"

Realizing that he could no longer hide it, Ji Sunwook meekly confessed that he was dating a man and finally put an end to their relationship with the confession he had been putting off.

Lee Jihoon, who came to catch Ji Sunwook, denied that conclusion. He said that Ji Sunwook didn't love him, so this couldn't be the end for them. Not wanting to believe it, he blocked Ji Sunwook’s way out saying he would prove it.

"What kind of coward abandons the one he loves and then runs away?"

Guided by Lee Jihoon's firm hand, the two stood on a road they had never been on before. Only when standing at the edge of friendship from which no one can retreat did they realize that they were facing something that made them uncertain whether they were proving that it was love or proving that it was not. <<less

The Crown Prince is dead, and the Great Xuan Dynasty is in turmoil.... more>>

The rebel army is at the gates.

To stabilize the situation and uncover the cause of death of her twin elder brother, Zhao Yan, Princess Changfeng, has no choice but to disguise herself as a man and take on the role of the Eastern Palace Crown Prince, facing the wind and shedding blood.

On the night she enters the Eastern Palace, the Empress repeatedly admonishes her, “As the only prince of a different surname in this dynasty, the cunning Prince Su has controlled the court and the military for many years. His ambitious nature must not be underestimated!”

Hearing this, Zhao Yan feels like she’s walking on thin ice every day, her heart pounding.

Until one day, Zhao Yan is ambushed.

When she wakes up, everything is chaotic, and there, the powerful Prince Su, with his disheveled hair and half-dressed attire, looks at her with his dangerously handsome and slightly raised eyes.

This is bad!

Zhao Yan’s mind goes blank, and she turns to run.

In the next moment, her sash is caught.

Prince Su sneers and his voice carries a hint of displeasure, “Running away so soon, isn’t that improper?”

“The Little Crown Prince” with ink-black hair scattered and a pale face stammers, “I… I’m going to review the memorials.”

“Sure.”

The man leisurely hooks her hair strands, his voice low and hoarse, “As the Crown Prince reads memorials, I shall read the Crown Prince.”

——–

People used to say that the naturally rebellious and unruly Prince Su has changed his ways, no longer causing trouble or rebellion, but instead assisting the Crown Prince. He stays overnight in the Eastern Palace every day and even shares a bed with the Crown Prince.

Who would have thought that one day, it would be revealed that the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace is actually a girl disguised as a boy, causing turmoil in the court.

The whole court is in an uproar, and everyone speculates that Prince Su will seize this opportunity to overthrow the imperial power and take over.

However, during the court interrogation, Prince Su, draped in a black cloak, bows in front of the civil and military officials, reaching out to hold the delicate fingertips of the young girl.

“Don’t be afraid, let’s move forward.”

His voice is stern yet reassuring, as he calmly states, “If anyone dares to speak ill, I’ll kill them; if heaven obstructs, I’ll defy it.” <<less

Three millennia later.... more>>

In the New Federal World which had experienced a historical deviation.

A game called "Jianghu" appeared out of nowhere, forcibly defining all humans in the world as players.

Yu Zhiyi was a slow-witted, easily neglected child ever since she was little. Yet the gifted and intelligent Shi Yi liked to take her around everywhere.... more>>

Taking her to and from school, waiting for her to go home, using his own pocket money to buy the prettiest little dress to give her.

Toddler Shi Yi: “If you want to be a princess, then I will build a castle for you.”

Teenager Shi Yi: “Let’s go to outer space together. I’ll count the stars, but since you’re dumb, you can just count the moons.”

The year Yu Zhiyi was abandoned, Shi Yi took her to his home and protected her for the whole summer: “You are very adorable, worthy of being loved.”

The year they were 18, Shi Yi proposed; the year they were 22, she became Mrs. Shi.

[Kindergarten]
Yu Zhiyi got picked to be the ‘mother’ when playing house, but it scared her playmate so much they cried, “Yu Zhiyi is so s*upid, I don’t want to be her dumb child.”

As such, she could only stand there and stare at the other kids playing together. Shi Yi who was passing by picked her up, “You are a little dummy, you need to find a partner that has a high IQ to save your future children.”

“Then…then who should I look for?”

“Since we’re neighbors, I’ll allow you to become Mrs. Shi when we’re older!”

[College]
When Shi Yi was 18, the usually timid Yu Zhiyi gifted him a pricey watch and a red heart-shaped card. Shi Yi only glanced at the watch but took the card away.

The former top engineering student Wei San transmigrated into an interstellar child who was deprived of education. By picking up garbage and turning waste into treasure, she finally saved a sum of money before the opening season of school and immediately signed up.... more>>

She planned to become a Mecha Engineer in the future. It was said that it can make a lot of money and was closely related to her own original specialization. Plan pass √

Unexpectedly, because of her greed for cheap tuition fees, Wei San reported to the wrong major and became a mecha individual fighter——those violent maniacs who licks blood all day

Wei·Gentle & Quiet·Impoverished·Engineer: “……”

However, the environment could not make her give in, and Wei San decided to learn by herself in her spare time.

During the training period of a certain competition, the media interviewed and photographed the individual fighters of each school in turn, which was broadcast live on the whole interstellar network. The audience could see that everyone was training desperately, such as gravity pressurization, close combat, long-distance entanglement and so on.

【YY’s melee is too strong. Who dares to melee when the light saber is out!】

【ww’s whipping skills are too superb, NB(F****** great)! ! !】

Then Wei San was recorded sitting cross legged in the training hall, looking down and concentrating on reading a book.

Bei Nuan found herself in an apocalypse novel that didn’t have a romantic pairing and became the holy mother female supporting character that specialized in being a drag to the team. In the end, she sacrificed the team to save a city of people and was cursed out by the readers.... more>>

Bei Nuan: I know the male protagonist and the plot. I’ll definitely be good at playing the female support character’s second chance.

There was a ding in her head. The task of the Holy Mother has begun. Play the role of a holy mother in front of the male protagonist. You can leave this world when you get to 100%.

Bei Nuan: “…”

[Although I do good things every day, I’m really not a good person.]

***

The male protagonist, Lu Xingchi, had a bug-level existence and easily crushed everything, but one small detail left his team being wiped out.

The first thing he did after he was reborn was to plan on throwing that holy mother white lotus into a pile of zombies.

But, as the days dragged on, he found it harder and harder to do so.

System: New task unlocked: Within the next 24 hours, acting like a holy mother in front of the male lead will not give you any Holy Mother points. Acting like a holy mother in front of Male B, Male C, and Male D will get you double Holy Mother points.

Bei Nuan: There was such a good thing?

Lu Xingchi discovered that that girl, who had solemnly vowed yesterday, “I’ll follow you every step of the way. Every second that I’m separated from you is a waste of my life,” had disappeared. <<less

Never should be exposed, just the two of them in their youth.... more>>

「I’ll be making your meals from now on, Sensei.」

I, Reiyu Tenjō, am a high school teacher.

When I shared some food with my neighbor, it turned out to be my student, Yuunagi Nishiki. If this fact is discovered, I might be fired from the school?

That’s why we signed a 『Neighbor Agreement』 in order to keep our secret.

Since we both live alone, the plan was to help each other out when one of us was in trouble——but somehow, I got won over by his cooking.

Instead of helping him, I find myself increasingly spoiled and dependent that I can’t live without him anymore.

‘No, Reiyu Tenjō. He’s your student, someone you are not supposed to fall in love with!’

Drawing closer and then apart——their love sways ambiguously like waves.

A youth romantic comedy filled with secrets between a teacher and student begins here. <<less

Luisen was a lord who wasted his life away after fleeing his castle in the middle of the night during a war. He died experiencing bitter regret, but when he opened his eyes, he found he had regressed back to that night he ran away!... more>>

There’s no fleeing twice! This time he’s determined not to leave the territory, but to protect it…

Going alone to the enemy to surrender himself, Luisen met Carlton, a noble-hating mad-dog mercenary. The two found strange solidarity as unfortunate souls who threw away their life's potential through horrible choices.

“If I die, so will you," Luisen said.

Carlton, who acknowledged the reality of Luisen's statement, suddenly began to think, "Why is the duke helping me so much?"

From then on, his gaze began to linger on Luisen. <<less

A spell of dense fog awakens the animal inside.... more>>

Under a heavy fog seen only once every century, the whole university had stopped classes and was under lockdown. Yet, there would still be disobedient classmates.

For example, Lin Wu who climbed over the school fence.

For example, Wang Ye who was receiving a confession from the prettiest girl on campus.

As a result, Lin Wu, straddling the top of the fence, heard the most awe-inspiring reason for rejection in all of history—

The school flower: “I like you.”

Wang Ye: “Sorry.”

School flower: “Why?”

Wang Ye: “It isn’t your fault. It’s mine”.

School flower: “You can’t possibly be using that overdone excuse, like ‘I don’t like women’?”

Wang Ye: “I don’t like humans.”

Three days later, the fog cleared up. Lin Wu discovered that he suddenly had overwhelming urges to run around. Moreover, every nightfall, he wanted to sing loudly towards the moon.

Students and teachers alike all experienced different changes in their bodies. This strange phenomenon of “wild awakenings” accompanied a chain of foggy spells across various regions and began to spread to the rest of the world.

Lin Wu: “Thanks to the power of your lucky words, all the humans in the world now aren’t quite human anymore.”

Wang Ye: … <<less

The name of the young man is Wen Qingying. He can neither speak nor hear.

As such, Tao Ling would come around the flower shop every day to chit-chat as much as he pleased. Then one day, the young man suddenly spoke, “I've caught you red-handed many times.”

Ning Su’s hair is soft, his skin is pale, his expression is slightly sluggish, his body is thin, and he is out of place in the crowd of passers-by.... more>>

He listened to the people around him discussing how to clear the level of this dungeon, and asked: “I survived the level, does it count as clearing the level?”

The people around looked at him like a fool: What a pity.

After entering the dungeon, Ning Su really started to live a life of his own.

If there is a gloomy skull on the castle, Ning Su will pick it up and make it into a night light to sleep beautifully.

The waterfall turned into blood, and he took the stew in a small milk pot, his eyes shining brightly.

Occasionally, he will also make small clothes for ghosts crawling on the ground.

Later, he really survived, the NPCs are sticky to him, the ghost master followed him and called him ‘mother’, and he still had the bloody heart of the flower god in his chest.

“…”

For Ning Su, there is food and drink in the infinite horror world, which is much more wonderful than his previous life.

He lived in the doomsday era and used to be a supernatural being, but his supernatural power is different. He is a special dark supernatural being who can absorb all dark things.

The person in charge of the base asked him to purify the zombies and sent him to the zombie group.

He turned into a little dark zombie.

Humans did not like him, all dark beings loved him. <<less

Lin You had been a beta for seventeen years, but one day he suddenly presented as an omega, with a rare seductive type pheromone on top of that, which is fatally attractive to alphas.... more>>

While the alphas claimed that they don't like this type of violent maniac, their faces couldn’t help but blush and their hearts couldn’t help but race as they looked at him, thinking to themselves how fair his skin was and how nice his face looked.

Facing the group of alphas closely observing him, Lin You looked around and felt that his beta best friend, Lu Qingyan, was the most reliable. He wasn’t affected by the pheromones at all. Lin You leaned comfortably against Lu Qingyan, sticking even closer than before.

And when Lu Qingyan faced the trusting gaze of Lin You, he silently swallowed the words hidden in his heart — deep down, he also found Lin You's pheromones to smell very pleasant, like an overwhelming net that captured him within.

Two months later, Lu Qingyan also presented.

An alpha, with top-tier pheromones.

Several months later, he marked Lin You.

Lin You (scratching his claws): "...You liar!" <<less

I, The Emperor’s illegitimate child, a princess only in name, married you, a war hero, as if being sold.... more>>

You taught me all about the emotion called love.

However, you also taught me what is was like to feel misery.

I was driven by revenge when I realized that your actions towards me were false, when that woman gave birth to a child who looked just like you, when that woman tried to kill me and you didn’t even blink an eye. Then, I realized something.

I have to leave.

I no longer wanted to be a woman who was easily manipulated by others.

“I’m sorry. I’m so sorry. Asyria…”

“Please, please, can’t you come back…?”

I faintly smiled at the desperate, ridiculous look that you’d never once shown me before, even when I felt like I was going to die. By the time you came around, it was already too late. <<less

"I'm... going to break you."... more>>

His low voice grew raspy towards the end. His hand on my hip tensed and began to tremble. His deep gray eyes were overflowing with masculine arousal. Lee Kyuwol's eyes were telling me. The gentle kiss we had just shared a moment ago was merely the beginning of his consolation.

The violent desire that had been hidden underneath his indifferent, gray eyes intensified the moment I gave him my consent, and he warned me that he would break my world. Within the murky fog of dread, I felt an overwhelming sense of relief.

"...I'd prefer that."

When he heard my whispered reply, Lee Kyuwol raised both of his hands and ripped open my black mourning dress. <<less

Later, he went to the French department for an elective class and got poked in the back.

Turning around, he saw a little girl.

Big eyes, white skin, pretty and tiny. She looked…. s*upidly cute.

Lu Yuanyuan looked at the guy’s handsome face and carefully asked, “Classmate, excuse me, can you let me through?”

The voice was very small, the tone matching the person, soft and sticky.

….. So f*cking cute.

Su Lin’s heart was about to jump out of his chest.

He suppressed his emotions and said: “Okay, tell me your name first.” <<less

Ji Zhen Tang first saw Zhong Yu Bai at her boyfriend's birthday banquet.
Amidst the clinking of glasses, the man sat calmly in the midst of swirling smoke, unruffled, quietly listening to the conversations around the table.
Her boyfriend leaned in to whisper to her, giving her a heads-up: "That's my third uncle, don't provoke him, I can't handle it."
On the same day of the birthday banquet, her boyfriend got drunk and embarrassed her in front of everyone.
Leaving the Zhong family mansion, she walked in the rain. Before long, an umbrella was held over her head, and Ji Zhen Tang looked back.

Ji Zhen Tang overheard her ex-boyfriend's tone full of envy as he talked about his uncle, mentioning how Zhong Yu Bai bought a tea plantation in the prime land of the mountains and rivers for his little girlfriend.
People started gossiping, "Which woman is so lucky?"
Before anyone could finish their words, someone stepped in from outside. The man exuded an imposing aura, silencing the whole room.
Without paying attention to anyone else, Zhong Yu Bai walked straight to Ji Zhen Tang and gently embraced her.
"The feng shui of the mountains and rivers is suitable for begonias. Since she likes it, everything is negotiable."

Ji Zhen Tang had heard about Zhong Yu Bai from others, portraying him as a high-status, gentle and wealthy man. Mr. Zhong was perfect in every aspect, except for being too ruthless and not understanding the meaning of compassion.
But she had clearly seen it. When she was sick, he patiently brewed medicine for her by the stove, gently massaging her numb and painful hand until late into the night.
He spoke words of comfort in the softest and gentlest manner, afraid of troubling her.
"Does it still hurt?"

Zhong Yu Bai listened with a smile, his eyes full of affection as he gazed at his sparrow—

"She is a bird, and I am not her cage."

"I am her sanctuary." <<less

“Who are you?” Shen Ruozhen asked.

“Don’t you remember me?” the stranger replied.

“I don’t know you,” Shen Ruozhen said.

“Chu Zhichen, it’s no use pretending to have amnesia after such a big accident,” the stranger said.

Shen Ruozhen was confused.

He had never heard of Chu Zhichen before.

But as he looked at the stranger’s face, he felt a sense of familiarity.

The phrase “偷风不偷月” is a Chinese idiom, and its literal translation to English is “Stealing the wind, but not the moon.” This idiom is often used to describe someone who is content with small gains and is not greedy. It implies that a person is satisfied with obtaining just a small advantage or benefit, rather than trying to achieve something much greater.

The phrase also has a more negative connotation. It can be used to describe someone who is deceitful or manipulative.
